‘India ready to allow Pak to try fugitives’

‘India ready to allow Pak to try fugitives’: "Softening its stand that Pakistan should hand over perpetrators of Mumbai attacks and other fugitives, India has stated it will have no objection, if they are put through “fair trial” in that country itself. We want to see Pakistan implementing its words, says External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee on Islamabad’s announcement of actions against Jamaat-ud-Dawa.

“It would be ideal if they (Pakistan) can hand over the fugitives from India to us. If that is not possible, there should at least be a fair trial of these fugitives in Pakistan,” told External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee."
